Billy Graham
This is the Billy Graham that I remember. Just knowing that he is no longer in this world fills me with both sadness and joy. I'm sad that such a great man of God is gone from us. Happy that he is at home with God, whom he served so faithfully; happy that he is reunited with his beloved wife.
May we carry on spreading God's Word, God's message to the lost.

Earlier I caught some
of the teens on Fox News talking. What I heard was a bunch of traumatized teenagers who are
obviously suffering mightily from survivors guilt.
What I thought was that
whoever had put them in that spot, in front of those cameras should be whipped
for doing so.
Then just a bit ago, I ran across this article.

They've never, in recent history, had the best interests of this country in mind. Somewhere along the way, they lost their way.

Just an update on my
book review blog, The Leisure Zone.
Wanted to share some
updates about my book review blog.
We currently have 2
reviewers: one full time, me, Jacqueline - and one part time, Shadow.
We did away with the
review team about a year or more ago, as it just wasn't working out for me.
Currently we have a
backlog of reviews to post.
Because of that, I'm

So, here they are:
Dragon Rose by Christine Pope
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

So, I've decided to blog through the alphabet, from A to Z. I did a bit of googling, and I know that there's an official challenge that goes off in April of each year. But they want you to blog each and every day ...... yeahhhhh, that may not happen. But whether or not I do it every day, or however often I choose to continue the alphabet posts, I thought it would be an interesting thing to do.

And July here isn't just hot, it's humid too. Sometimes, walking out your door is like walking into a sauna.
Me, I hibernate inside during summer. Several years ago, I got overheated, and so I don't handle heat well anymore.
My seasonal preferences are as follows:
1 fall
2 spring
3 winter
4 summer
